Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been spotted enjoying a luxurious break in the Caribbean.

The couple were snapped strolling hand in hand on the tiny island of Canouan in St Vincent and the Grenadines after a busy week for the pair on the promotional trail in New York. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were photographed by a passer by who spotted them exiting a gourmet food store at the Sandy Lane Yacht Club and Marina in Glossy Bay.

Meghan was seen wearing a white maxi-dress with a panama hat, with Harry keeping it casual in navy shorts and a white t-shirt teamed with flip flops. The passer-by said that the couple appeared to be without their children for the trip as they showed one another affection.

They told Daily Mail: "They looked happy. As Harry walked out of the shop, he slightly bumped into one of the barrels [outside] and they both giggled and Meghan reached for his hand. They just looked very happy to be having a holiday together."

The couple had been shopping at exclusive grocery store Faye before they took a walk on the bougainvillea-festooned promenade and subsequently boarded a luxury tender boat to Canouan’s north shore. The intimate island is known as the place ‘billionaires go to escape millionaires’ spanning just three miles wide.

Accomodation on the island includes the Canouan Estate Resort and Villas, the Mandarin Oriental, and the Soho Beach House Canouan. Rooms at the lavish resorts start at $837 and rise to more than $9000-a-night. The lavish location is popular with many big name stars including friends of the Sussexes George Clooney and his wife Amal as well as big name Hollywood stars Robert Downey Jr and Leonardo DiCaprio.

Meanwhile, Meghan and Harry could soon be set to compete with Prince William and Princess Kate. The Prince and Princess of Wales are said to be eyeing up making it big in America amid reports that the duo are in the midst of submitting a trademark application in the United States. With it also being reported that the Waleses will partake in various royal engagements around the world to promote the Royal Family.

William reportedly submitted an application to the US Patent and Trademark Office on May 12 this year to trademark "The Royal Foundation of the Prince and Princess of Wales". The application's address is listed as Kensington Palace, London, and the request is reportedly seeking to trademark the Foundation's name for "promotional campaigning, charitable fundraising, educational activities and healthcare services relating to mental health."
